In Sunagakure Headquarters.
The team led by Kakashi is resting in the camp, recharging their energy for the upcoming fierce battle.
Although we don't know the specific time of Shukaku's resurrection, the Akatsuki organization that once destroyed the Jinchūriki ritual will never give up.
To this end, they and the Sand Ninja teamed up to set up a series of traps here.
However, when he thought that he might have to fight the masked man, Kakashi was worried but also a little hopeful. With his strength improved a lot, could he be able to fight the masked man?
After being sent to Kumogakure as an envoy and witnessing the training scene of the Fourth Raikage, he seemed to have found a way to use thunder escape to improve his combat effectiveness, and began to try to practice ninjutsu to deal with the enemy.
This is not without precedent. His father, Hatake Sakumo, was a strong ninjutsu master and once became the head of the ANBU, and he was not far away from that position.
Putting back his thoughts that were gradually diverging, Kakashi walked to his companions, rested under the trees created by Yamato, and looked at the busy Sunagakure in the distance.
Shisui next to him sighed: "Compared to last time, Suna Ninja's proficiency has dropped a lot."
After Kakashi heard this, he shook his head and said nothing.
Sunagakure was once the strongest ninja village outside of Konoha. However, as time went by and its own conditions, it gradually became the last of the five great ninja villages.
At this moment, Kai, who was out looking for youth, returned and brought back a young boy.
Looking at this young man with panda eyes who should be in the ninja school, Kakashi narrowed his eyes slightly and secretly asked, are there children in the Akatsuki organization's team?
As if noticing Kakashi's doubts, Yamato appeared quietly and whispered: "He is the Kazekage's son Gaara, and he almost became a Jinchuriki."
Kakashi felt relieved, it turned out to be the jinchuriki prepared by Sunagakure, but when he saw Gaara, he thought of his teacher's son, the nine-tailed jinchuriki Naruto.
At this time, Gaara raised his hand, and a ball of sand floated into his hand. He immediately looked around in the open space, as if looking for someone's trace.
After a while, Gaara asked Kai: "Mr. Kai, where is your captain?"
Kai pointed out Kakashi's location and said, "That's him."
Gaara shook his head gently: "It's not him, I remember it's not him."
Kai scratched his head and said with enlightenment: "You are referring to Zang, he did not carry out this mission, and it seems that there is no sound."
Gaara seemed a little discouraged when he heard this, and the sand fell to the ground again.
Kakashi took a few steps forward, looked at Gaara and said, "I am their captain for this mission. Do you need help?"
Gaara's eyes lit up and he continued: "Can you tell me their story?"
Glancing at Gaara, Kakashi felt a little helpless, but he still forced a smile and told him about Hinata Zou.
At the same time, I was secretly surprised in my heart as to what Zang had done to have a fanboy in Sunagakure Village.
Everything that happened in the clearing was not hidden from the eyes and ears of the Fourth Kazekage. After hearing the report from his subordinates, the Fourth Kazekage just nodded slightly and continued to let it go.
Since discovering Gaara's talent, he began to train Gaara to become a qualified ninja.
After going through a series of training, Gaara's strength is close to that of a Jonin, and he is much stronger than Temari and Kankuro.
However, compared to the rest of the mediocre people in the village, Temari and Kankuro can be considered outstanding.
I don't know why, but the geniuses in Sunagakure are always born from their own family, and the rest are not worth mentioning at all.
Continuing to send the Sand Eyes to investigate the outside world, the Fourth Kazekage was thinking about another extremely important matter, which was who would be the first jinchūriki after Shukaku was resurrected.
In the past, the best choice was Gaara, but now, he began to hesitate.
Does he really want to imprison his son in that prison for the sake of the village? Will Garura and Yashamaru agree?
He really couldn't make up his mind.
Soon, he diverted his energy. If he couldn't even get the first tail, it would be just empty talk to become a jinchuriki.
Not long after, several Sunagakure ANBU rushed into the camp, interrupting the Fourth Kazekage's thoughts.
The Fourth Kazekage felt slightly unhappy, but did not show it. He looked at the ANBU and asked, "Have you discovered the Akatsuki organization, or is Shukaku about to be resurrected?"
The ANBU looked at each other and said together: "In the border area, the Iwa ninja has made new moves."
The Fourth Kazekage frowned and asked: "Iwa Ninja? What actions did they take to violate our border?"
The ANBU shook his head and said: "That's not true. They seem to be heading towards the Kingdom of Rain, and the reason for their progress is not yet known."
The Fourth Kazekage waved his hand and asked the ANBU to go down.
Anbu may not know it clearly, but he knew from the Hokage that the Iwa Ninja cooperated with the Akatsuki organization to a certain extent, and with the help of the Akatsuki organization, they occupied the territory of Kusagakure Village.
He naturally sneered at Iwagakure's behavior.
But if he puts himself in his shoes, he understands Ohnoki to a certain extent. If the Akatsuki organization were not interested in tailed beasts and had a rebellious ninja like Scorpion, he wouldn't mind cooperating with the Akatsuki organization.
Using the method of wiping out the Akatsuki organization to secretly control the surrounding small countries is often Konoha's specialty.
However, he did not believe that Ohnoki would actually cooperate with the Akatsuki organization after hearing the rumors that the Akatsuki organization's target was the tailed beast. After all, Iwagakure had two jinchuriki who had formed a fighting force.
Without these two jinchūriki, Onoki's Iwagakure Village would not be much stronger than Sunagakure.
…………
Inside Konoha Village.
With a puff of smoke, Uchibo received information about Hinata Zang from the psychic beast.
After briefly reading the information, flames appeared in Yin's palm, burning the information into ashes.
The content of the intelligence was very simple, telling that the Akatsuki organization was about to attack Konoha, and by the way, a small number of members who were about to attack, as well as members of the Akatsuki organization who might attack.
After receiving this information, Uchiha Bo did not go to the top of Konoha, but arrived at the Uchiha clan and found the half-retired captain Uchiha Fugaku.
Fugaku, who had semi-retired, became much kinder. He drank tea in the courtyard, and when he saw Yin, he asked Mikoto to entertain him.
Sitting opposite Fugaku, Uchibo said straight to the point without any nonsense: "The Akatsuki organization will attack the village in the near future. At that time, the patriarch will be asked to lead the security team to protect the villagers."
Fugaku shook the tea cup and didn't care about why Yiyin knew that the Akatsuki organization was about to attack, but asked: "Wouldn't it be better if the security team was led by you? Is it better for the Akatsuki organization to be dealt with by the Hokage group?"
Uchibo shook his head slightly: "Tsunade cannot deal with the attack, and the same goes for the Inorakacho family and Hinata. Do you expect Danzo's roots to take action? So we can only rely on us."
